Former
GOP Rep. John LeBoutillier, the author and co-host of the popular “Revolution
The Podcast” is calling on Congress to release the names of all members whose
sexual harassment or misconduct led to settlements paid for by taxpayer
dollars. “Every name of every harasser
should be made public,” says LeBoutillier. [more...]

In
the new film, Trump:
The Art of the Insult, Donald Trump dominated the 2016 Presidential
face with a master plan of political incorrectness, using The Art of the
Insult to brand political opponents and bash the media all the way to the
White House. In the film, Donald Trump emerges as a marketing genius and performance
artist who, despite being a Manhattan billionaire, captured the hearts of
middle America. Critics are calling The Art of the Insult “the most
entertaining political documentary ever!” [more...]

The dawn of the Petro-Yuan: will it doom the dollar?
When President Richard Nixon in 1971 suddenly severed the dollar’s anchor to
gold – fearful that allies such as France were about to demand all the gold in
Fort Knox in exchange for their mountains of paper dollars – its “exorbitant
privilege,” as one French official called it, as the world’s Reserve Currency
was saved by a deal with Saudi Arabia, which kept selling its oil only for
dollars in exchange for the U.S. military’s arms and blood defending the
Saudis. In other words, they would prop up the dollar if we propped up the
ruling Muslim Saudi royal family. We switched from the precious metal-backed
dollars of our Constitution to “Petro-Dollars.” China now threatens this
fundamental part of the “international order” by being on the verge of creating
the “Petro-Yuan” through contracts backed by gold to sell oil in exchange not
for dollars but for China’s currency. This will send the value of gold soaring,
ZeroHedge predicts, as “China Kneecaps The Dollar.” The Petro-Yuan could at
least share and thereby dilute the power of America’s global reserve currency
monopoly – and might be the beginning of its end.[more...]

As 2017 draws to a close, the entertainment industry is
discovering it has to deal with the reality that this year is turning out to be
the worst ever for the Hollywood brand. The sex scandals surrounding movie
mogul Harvey Weinstein and other major Hollywood players certainly did not help
matters. Neither did the vitriolic politics that routinely spewed from
left-wing celebrities’ mouths and wound up alienating folks from coast to coast.
This year the movie box office, once the primary gauge of the entertainment
business, suffered yet another decline. Despite the fact that over the last
twenty years or so gross box-office revenues saw an increase, for the last
decade and a half, actual ticket sales have consistently taken a dive. [more...]

Trump
has cracked the Rosetta Stone of getting things through Congress. The
congressional tax cut saga has just concluded, and Trump won yet again. But this
is just the beginning. Assuming the economy strengthens substantially ahead of
the 2018 mid-term elections, and that Republicans not only retain their
majorities in both houses, but also enlarge them, get ready for the next round
of tax cuts. Congress lives to fight one battle at a time. Trump always has the
larger picture in mind. While this tax bill is less than perfect, upon its
success, it sets the stage for more tax cuts during Trump’s seven remaining
years. Yes, if the economy is growing at a 4-6% rate come 2020, you’re looking
at four more years. [more...]
